“Yes, absolutely, I think it's a myth that planning a wedding can be stress-free. Whether or not you find it stressful throughout the entire wedding planning process is another thing, but there are certain periods of planning that are more stressful, especially the closer you get to the big event.”

“Think about different scenarios such as 'This or That?' Would we feel more comfortable if we did it this way or that way? You’ll soon know which choice makes you feel less anxious and overwhelmed.”

What if wedding planning stress starts affecting personal relationships?
What if wedding planning stress starts affecting personal relationships?
“Make sure your partner is aware of what stress looks like for you. It’s taken me years to communicate to my partner that when the house is a mess it means life is stressful outside of the home. So, rather than adding to the chaos I really need more support at that time. That and when I’ve stopped prioritising exercise - these are the signs when I am stressed. Consider what stress looks like for both of you. Communication is key! You’ll learn so much about each other and about how your families and friends deal with stress at this time too. If you need to create boundaries don’t be afraid to do so, just communicate them kindly.”
